TURN is a kinetic sculpture that uses reclaimed hardwood flooring from a local college gymnasium and serves as a table and a lounge as well. An optional rolling weight inside the sculpture enables the piece to stand on its own, turning any room into an art gallery. Recycling, interaction with art, and transforming spaces were key goals. A limited edition series of TURN is produced from each lot of reclaimed material, or it can be ordered using sustainable plywood made of bamboo. Customers may also send their own heirloom material to be used to make into a personal, one of a kind piece. TURN was an official selection of the Pasadena Museum of California Art 2007 Design Biennial, from August 18 through September 30, 2007. The exhibition was a juried cross section of the most innovative and important design produced in the stateover the past two years and is the only exhibition that highlights the unique achievements of California designers. The exhibition was structured to bring attention to new directions in design and explore the ways that design impacts and inspires everyday life. |
